Big M area, 3/21

[Quillback]

Saw a few eagles today, bright blue skies and a bit breezy.  Didn't turn on the depth finder today as I stayed shallow, so I don't know what the water temp was, but I bet low 50's.

If you like fishing the Ned, they are biting it.  Caught 30 Ned fish today, mostly small males, but did get one about 3 lbs. on the Ned.  Most of the fish came from secondary points inside coves, the boys are back there schooled up and waiting to move on the beds.  Catch one and you'll want to work that spot hard because there will probably be more.

Caught another 5 on the Rock Crawler, I think 3 of them would have been keepers.

Eagle in the nest.

Nice Quill!  My brother and I are heading over to Big M Friday.  I hope the cold front on Thursday doesn't mess them up too bad!

Water is a little more stained than it was before the rain and cold, I'd say about 3 feet of visibility and a sort of greenish brown color.
